About Me:

My name is Aleks and I love meeting people from other parts of the world. I love sharing different points of view and getting to know a slice of some other reality in another corner of the world that does not match that which surrounds me. I love traveling very much and take any opportunity to go somewhere new. I love politics and history, foreign languages, new foods and flavours, coffee and wine. I love nature, mountains and oceans but I prefer living in a huge city that just overflows with life and energy. I like people that embrace others for who they are and don't judge them. If you'd like to know anything else, then ask.....

Requests:

I'm looking for mature and interesting people (although I suppose we all think we're interesting ourselves) for friendship, especially people with some of the same interests and/or hobbies, but not entirely necessary. Above all, I love people that are open to the world, new cultures, new perspectives​ and find it amazing to be able to connect with other people from such varied and diverse backgrounds.​ Right now I am particularly​ looking for people with the patience to help me practice my weak Spanish. I am also looking for friends in South America since I'd like to plan a trip there this winter.

Language Exchange Requests:

Right now I'd really want to develop some decent spanish skills :) I want to take a trip to South America in a few months so it's a matter of necessity and love. I've only tried to learn it on my own for the last few months, so my Spanish is pretty poor but I'll appreciate anyone with the patience to help me out.

Interests, Hobbies, etc.:

Reading (politics, history, foreign cultures, travel, science fiction) Cycling, Hiking, Traveling, "cheap"​ dinner and movie night with Guia and Mark, Learning languages

Favorite Music:

Malajube, Lo-Fi-Funk, Sally Shapiro, Bonnie Bailey, Phoenix, The Embassy, Mew, Mylene Farmer, Kent, Young Love, Imogen Heap, Muse, Scissors Sisters, Of Montreal, The Faint, Frou Frou, Wir sind Helden, Tamta, Sarbel, Eros Ramazzotti, Nash, Rebeca, Alex Ubago, David Bisbal, Clara Morgane, Culcha Candela, Helena Paparizou, Anna Vissi, and many more....

Favorite Movies:

La Fata Ignoranti, Kilometro Cero, Mala Educacion, Amelie, Le Temps qui reste, Gloomy Sunday, Das Leben der Anderen, Y tu Mama tambien, Juno, L'auberge espanole, Ogniem i mieczem, Volver, Lust Caution, The Bubble, Star Wars, The Black Book, Eastern Promises, Pan's Labrynth, Borat, Casino Royale, Brokeback Mountain, The Devil Wears Prada, Who Killed the Electric Car, Motorcycle Diaries, La Vita e Bella, The Namesake, El Orfanato, El Viaje de Carol, Before Night Falls

Favorite Books:

Tak, to prawda, że Polacy coraz więcej podróżują. Ja również pokochałem podróże i myślę, że nie ma nic lepszego.  Ostatnio byłem w Turcji, naprawdę wspaniały kraj. Chociaż jeszcze nie mam za bardzo możliwości, żeby móc podróżować tam gdzie bym chciał, bo jak nie szkoła to brak kasy trzyma mnie na miejscu, ale w przyszłości na pewno będę to robić. Poza tym jestem pełen podziwu, że umiesz tyle języków :-) Pozdrawiam

In hungary i study hungarian literature and linguistic, but i got the scolarship of an other faculty so in paris i learnt european studies, its not really my field, and im not sure if ive been ever interested in these kind of things, but Paris made me forget about everything:-​)

Normalerweis​e habe ich kein Problem, auf deutsch zu reden. I think I'm doing more mistakes in English than in German, but curiously I'm spinking English easier. It's more intuitive.
Sinon, j'ai bien aimé Ne le dis à Personne, mais je connaissais le film avant la fin : j'avais lu le livre ! Mais ça restait un très bon film quand même. C'est issu d'un bouquin d'Harlan Coben, si tu aimes les polars, il en a fait plein d'autres !
